The bug in question was fixed in glibc 2.3.2 and is no longer expected
to manifest itself on real servers. On the other hand, the workaround
causes compilation problems on various systems. Previously, we've
already fixed the code to compile with musl libc (fd6fd02f6a4d), and
now it is broken on Fedora 28 where glibc's crypt library was replaced
by libxcrypt. So the workaround was removed.
FreeBSD returns EINVAL when getsockopt(TCP_FASTOPEN) is called on a unix
domain socket, resulting in "getsockopt(TCP_FASTOPEN) ... failed" messages
during binary upgrade when unix domain listen sockets are present in
the configuration. Added EINVAL to the list of ignored error codes.
While 325b3042edd6 fixed it on MINIX, it broke it on systems
that output the word "version" on several lines with "cc -v".
The fix is to only consider "clang version" or "LLVM version"
as clang version, but this time only using sed(1).
Previously, only unix domain sockets were reopened to tolerate cases when
local syslog server was restarted. It makes sense to treat other cases
(for example, local IP address changes) similarly.
Cast to intermediate "void *" to lose compiler knowledge about the original
type and pass the warning. This is not a real fix but rather a workaround.

In mail and stream modules, no certificate provided is a fatal condition,
much like with the "ssl" and "starttls" directives.
In http, "listen ... ssl" can be used in a non-default server without
certificates as long as there is a certificate in the default one, so
missing certificate is only fatal for default servers.
In 51e1f047d15d, the "ssl" directive name was incorrectly hardcoded
in the error message shown when there are some SSL keys defined, but
not for all certificates. Right approach is to use the "mode" variable,
which can be either "ssl" or "starttls".
Previously, result of ngx_atoi() was assigned to an ngx_uint_t variable,
and errors reported by ngx_atoi() became positive, so the following check
in "status < 100" failed to catch them. This resulted in the configurations
like "proxy_cache_valid 2xx 30s" being accepted as correct, while they
in fact do nothing. Changing type to ngx_int_t fixes this, and such
configurations are now properly rejected.
Previously, ngx_http_upstream_process_header() might be called after
we've finished reading response headers and switched to a different read
event handler, leading to errors with gRPC proxying. Additionally,
the u->conf->read_timeout timer might be re-armed during reading response
headers (while this is expected to be a single timeout on reading
the whole response header).
Previously, ngx_http_upstream_test_next() used an outdated condition on
whether it will be possible to switch to a different server or not. It
did not take into account restrictions on non-idempotent requests, requests
with non-buffered request body, and the next upstream timeout.
For such requests, switching to the next upstream server was rejected
later in ngx_http_upstream_next(), resulting in nginx own error page
being returned instead of the original upstream response.
- use normal prefixes for types and macros
- removed some macros and types
- revised debug messages
- removed useless check of ngx_sock_ntop() returning 0
- removed special processing of AF_UNSPEC
The protocol used on inbound connection is auto-detected and corresponding
parser is used to extract passed addresses. TLV parameters are ignored.
The maximum supported size of PROXY protocol header is 107 bytes
(similar to version 1).
All cases are harmless and should not happen on valid values, though can
result in bad values being shown incorrectly in logs.

This was previously used, but was incorrectly removed in 83d54192e97b
while removing old threads remnants. Instead of using it conditionally
when threads are not used, we now set in unconditionally, as even with
thread pools enabled we never call OpenSSL functions in threads.
This fixes resulting binary when using --with-openssl with OpenSSL 1.1.0+
and without -lpthread linked (notably on FreeBSD without PCRE).
OpenSSL now uses pthread_atfork(), and this requires -lpthread on Linux
to compile. Introduced NGX_LIBPTHREAD to add it as appropriate, similar
to existing NGX_LIBDL.
The fields "uri", "location", and "url" from ngx_http_upstream_conf_t
moved to ngx_http_proxy_loc_conf_t and ngx_http_proxy_vars_t, reflect
this change in create_loc_conf comments.
The gRPC protocol makes a distinction between HEADERS frame with
the END_STREAM flag set, and a HEADERS frame followed by an empty
DATA frame with the END_STREAM flag. The latter is not permitted,
and results in errors not being propagated through nginx. Instead,
gRPC clients complain that "server closed the stream without sending
trailers" (seen in grpc-go) or "13: Received RST_STREAM with error
code 2" (seen in grpc-c).
To fix this, nginx now returns HEADERS with the END_STREAM flag if
the response length is known to be 0, and we are not expecting
any trailer headers to be added. And the response length is
explicitly set to 0 in the gRPC proxy if we see initial HEADERS frame
with the END_STREAM flag set.
According to the gRPC protocol specification, the "TE" header is used
to detect incompatible proxies, and at least grpc-c server rejects
requests without "TE: trailers".
To preserve the logic, we have to pass "TE: trailers" to the backend if
and only if the original request contains "trailers" in the "TE" header.
Note that no other TE values are allowed in HTTP/2, so we have to remove
anything else.
The module allows passing requests to upstream gRPC servers.
The module is built by default as long as HTTP/2 support is compiled in.
Example configuration:
grpc_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
Alternatively, the "grpc://" scheme can be used:
grpc_pass grpc://127.0.0.1:9000;
Keepalive support is available via the upstream keepalive module. Note
that keepalive connections won't currently work with grpc-go as it fails
to handle SETTINGS_HEADER_TABLE_SIZE.
To use with SSL:
grpc_pass grpcs://127.0.0.1:9000;
SSL connections use ALPN "h2" when available. At least grpc-go works fine
without ALPN, so if ALPN is not available we just establish a connection
without it.
Tested with grpc-c++ and grpc-go.
The flag can be used to continue sending request body even after we've
got a response from the backend. In particular, this is needed for gRPC
proxying of bidirectional streaming RPCs, and also to send control frames
in other forms of RPCs.
The flag indicates whether last ngx_output_chain() returned NGX_AGAIN
or not. If the flag is set, we arm the u->conf->send_timeout timer.
The flag complements c->write->ready test, and allows to stop sending
the request body in an output filter due to protocol-specific flow
control.
Basic trailer headers support allows one to access response trailers
via the $upstream_trailer_* variables.
Additionally, the u->conf->pass_trailers flag was introduced. When the
flag is set, trailer headers from the upstream response are passed to
the client. Like normal headers, trailer headers will be hidden
if present in u->conf->hide_headers_hash.
